  1. Ok. Signs of life. Just had a spike walk by. Maybe they will move tonight
  2. Second try today for me also. Neighbors are buzzing around on their ATV’s already .... I am going to try and keep my head down and grind but my decision to hunt Akron today is backfiring.
  3. Spitting rain now. Feels like an all day lake effect mist.
  4. Wind just shifted to NW from mostly West and temps dropping. Had some duck hunters taking pot shots at a beaver at 8:30 this morning! The beaver came by me and looked to be struggling. The shot string was nothing like a duck hunting volley so I put two and two together
  5. I start my season tomorrow. Going to try a remote Allegany County state land whitetail spot with a side possibility of Bear. I never look forward to carrying a climber in on my back for one mile but the weather ahead has me motivated. Two weeks off of work yippee!!
  6. Awesome!!
  7. Great idea. Dave, for those of us that don’t live along the canal, what are the things in play? I assume the canals are drained to prepare for high spring runoff and ice damage during the winter? I have been in Ottawa in the winter and the frozen canals are alive with life. I saw guys in three piece suits and brief cases commuting to work with ice skates. Kids playing hockey everywhere. Lots of fun.
  8. Wow! Time to change your handle from Duckman to “Buckman”.
  9. Machzrcr, nice pickle. Back trace the big one by finding where his staging area is during shooting light via trail camera. Hang a stand with good entry and exits with correct wind. Or you could wait until the rut shuffles the deck and hunt doe groups nearby.
  10. The guys fishing on the bottom along the sidewalls of olcott piers with worms targeting perch in the spring used to catch them. I stopped seeing them in the mid-90’s when zebra mussels started dominating. I think the Oak fishing fleet learned to mimic the spot tail shiner when targeting browns by putting the eye sticker on the rear of the spoon.
  11. The mouth position downward makes me think it is not a Cisco https://www.dnr.state.mn.us/areas/fisheries/baudette/whitefish.html
  12. Looks like Mr no-brow is staring right into your soul
  13. I like to put ketchup on my fries.
  14. Grunt tube uses *when you hear a deer but can’t see it *Before and after rattling sequence *Before and after a snort wheeze sequence *When you need to redirect a buck walking in a line out of range *When walking in and walking out with loud leaves -don’t bother trying to be quiet, just sound like a chase scene and get in your tree as fast as you can
  15. Pheasant opener
  16. Do you remember when you were cutting all that grass. Well done!
  17. Eh...I still it makes sense to keep the river catch and release-only from October 15th to November 15th to protect the spawn and promote better behavior by fishermen. This should reduce injury to trout by reducing Salmon snatching rig usage during that time.

    Wow what a great looking rig!
  19. Whaler, I can picture myself rising out of your turnips like snoopy posing as the “Great Pumpkin”, only I am dressed like Rambo with a full belt of 50 cal. and I begin mowing down an entire herd of deer ( I need to start my deer season).
  20. Holy Diver, not all buck’s antlers are created equal. Given body size, that is a mature deer in NYS. Congrats on matching wits with one of the smartest critters in the woods. If anything, you helped your future chances of getting a 130” by removing that big bully from the hill.
  21. The doe is back but Dak Prescott won’t be. I hate when they show slow mo leg fractures.
  22. My skin will be crawling for a week.
  23. Warm weather-check for ticks!!! A grouse hunt today revealed about 50 ticks on my two dogs and another 10 on me. Onadaga County.
